The present study is a natural continuation of the authors’ longstanding interest in corporate knowledge and the approaches for its management, finding expression in the development of three research projects and numerous publications in this field of science. In view of the fact that knowledge becomes increasingly crucial for the existence, development and prosperity of companies in today's economic climate, the issue about the approaches (ways) for acquiring new corporate knowledge comes to the foreground. One of these ways is staff training. Today, in times of crisis, the shortage of financial resources in Bulgarian enterprises restricts the use of the other methods known in business practice. Therefore, staff training becomes the most affordable method for generating the necessary knowledge tailored to the specific corporate processes of an enterprise. In this respect the study analyzes the extent to which Bulgarian companies take advantage of opportunities provided by the training for generating new corporate knowledge as well as the problems accompanying its implementation.
